EPA Organization

Eurostat provides a wide range of products and consumables for production in ESD protected areas (EPA) and warehouses, to protect against electrostatic discharges.

The necessary equipment to protect a production area is as follows:
• A workbench
• A fabric or vinyl chair (vinyl for clean rooms),
• A table mat,
• A wrist strap/cord
• A universal terminal to ground the wrist strap, if possible with an earth bonding point under the workbench,
• A grounding terminal plate to ensure the safety of the setup,
• A table ionizer.
Generally, it is recommended to keep 30 cm away any objects that are No -conductive (insulative) or radiating over 5,000 Volts/m or 125 Volts/Inches that are in immediate proximity of sensitive circuits, such as: water bottles, office supplies that can generate ESD, insulative packaging, etc. As well as any cellulose (paper, wood, cardboard…) based elements with a low hygrometry (<40%).Clothing
As an important factor when it comes to electrostatic discharge generation, all personal must wear suitable ESD clothing that reduces risk of generating electrostatic discharge.
Dissipative lab coats are mandatory; they must not be covered in any insulative element (veil, badge, safety jacket, long hair etc.) and must cover the sleeves of the operator.

The floor
The floor of an EPA zone must be dissipative, and is required to ground the operator. He must be equipped with a strap/cord and proper shoes.
An ESD floor requires special cleaning, to avoid any risks of insulating its ESD properties. For example, you must avoid any cleaning product containing waxes or silicones.

Zone identification
It is important to identify and mark the areas where the workbenches are with appropriate signage on the walls and on the floor :
• Floor adhesive (workspace Identification) or guiding posts
• Signs at the entrances and exits of the EPA zones
• An instrument capable of testing wrist straps and/or shoes must be installed at the entrances of every EPA zone. Operators must test themselves before setting up.
• An instrument capable of ensuring an equal potential link between the operator, his workbench, and the ground.
Every safety or control device must be checked regularly.
